  • Hormone receptor-positive breast cancer shows limited response to immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs), but radiation therapy (RT) might enhance the effectiveness of ICIs by boosting immune responses.
  • The study explored the combination of hypofractionated RT with ICIs in a mouse model to see if targeting the primary tumor could delay the emergence of new tumors.
  • Results revealed that while focal RT could control primary tumor growth effectively, adding ICIs did not significantly improve overall survival, suggesting that controlling the primary tumor does not necessarily prevent the development of new cancer lesions.
